We had guests out on the island and brought the drone out for the first time. I'm definitely getting more comfortable flying it. There was very little wind though, which made for a nice picnic lunch and easy beginner windsurfing.
Here are the pictures.

The video turned out to be harder to edit than I expected. The DJI drone was set by default to save .mov (Apple) video files. It took forever to save a few as .mp4s using Handbrake so that I could edit them together. This new technology is cool but takes a lot of time!

After actually doing windsurfing lesson and a work conference call I went out and did some light wind freestyle. Duck tacks are pretty easy with a 4.5m sail. Michael's Mistral board will be put into service on the simulator I plan on building.
